History of Antifa
Battle cable street oct 4th 1936. Fascist black shirts with police protection try to march thru a Jewish neighborhood. Antifascists fight back and stop the march. Seems very similar to what is happening in the U.S.

In May 1946, four Jewish former soldiers encountered Hamm addressing a small crowd at Whitestone Pond in Hampstead, north London. They rushed the small platform from which he was speaking, tangling with the stewards who were guarding it, and beat Hamm.
